Albany, NY -- (SBWire) -- 08/09/2018 --Body screening is a specific technique of identifying hidden objects that an individual may carry under their clothes. Most body screening equipment enable the formation of a 3D image of an individual standing under it, without any overalls or apparel. This implies the complete inspection of what a person may be carrying without and physical contact or authorities having to physically remove the suspect’s clothes. Body screening equipment make use of wave technologies that were primarily used by military bodies for superior inspection and identification methods. A large number of body screening solutions are being used on airports as well as other locations where immigration of individuals can occur.
